From the page: A Tribe Called Quest Created by friends they knew from school who were inspired by the hip-hop band Jungle Brothers. Aphrodite did a mix to the Jungle Brothers song True Blue. That was the first time I'd heard of the Jungle Brothers but every time that track gets played I have to test the limits of my amplifier. Also from the page: Alabama Thunderpussy According to some feedback, the story is the band was drinking one night and watching some bad 70s porn. In the movie, a black transsexual prostitute walked into a bar and declared, I am the Alabama Thunderpussy! The band thought it was so hilarious they called their label, Relapse Records, and changed their name. Ten dollars to the person who can find one Mr/Mrs Alabama Thunderpussy, 70's porn star. From the page: " The Chemical Brothers Initially calling themselves "The Dust Brothers" after the Grammy Award winning producers of The Beastie Boys, those same producers threatened a lawsuit. They changed 'Dust' to 'Chemical' from a song of theirs called "Chemical Beat."
